OP just put a fence up along the back of your property ensuring it is 6" from the property line. Any debris, zoning violations, visual intrusion on everyone's karma will be on their legal property. They have no legal obligation to have their fence where it benefits you and as for the tree just ensure the arborist who trims your side does not over do it. Wouldn't want the tree to die off on your account.
Once your new fence is in place on your property fee feel to report the neighbor for having piles of garbage left the way they did....
Better yet, call every pizza place in town and order a pie delivered to your neighbor.
Also, stuff a potato in their tailpipe.
And, walk your dog on that little strip of grass between the curb and the sidewalk.
Park all of your cars in front of their house while your driveway remains totally empty.
Take up playing the drums. Set them up in the backyard and just play the d solo from Moby Dick over and over and over again.
Have some fun. You could also sit on your porch drinking beer with your shotgun over your shoulder. Then, just stare at them blankly every time they come home.
Another good one is the industrial sized wind chimes. Buy around a dozen sets and hang them from said tree.
Have your landscaper come Sunday morning and blow all of your leaves under the fence into their property.
I have plenty more. Feel free to ask for any additional advice.
I'd write a demand letter, telling them to redo the fence around their tree and clean up their mess, or you will take them to court and sue them for what it costs if you have to do it. Mail it return receipt requested, and save a copy. It might work.
Make sure to take before and after pics.

For future reference : "the grass verge"
That'll save you 8 words, keeping your assessed value lower.

That may be true in the UK but this is a section of City Data referring to Long Island, New York in the USofA where the same is true neither in usage nor in law.

I've heard the term used in Westchester where I live. I doubt there's no-one in LI that uses it...
Google "grass verge" and Westchester and you'll see a bunch of hits - US ones. For example - see "Waverley Avenue - design study" in Mamaroneck village - where a "grass verge" is discussed. Just across the sound from the North Shore and speaking the same language as LI as far as I know.
Ignorance of a term is not the same as non-use. You can call lampposts light sticks if you want but there's still a term for them.
Long term totally.
It's more fun to fire up the sprinklers though when somebody decides to let their dog on it.
Concrete is ugly. Can't stand it.
